I got home tonight a bit tired and had quite a few things to get done. Normally, I'd just go answer my email or whatever while Bike Boy cooks dinner, but he's off interstate once again, so I had to cook, dammit! My gem of a husband had made a big dish of lasagne before he went away, so the kids' dinner was sorted at least, but I wanted something quick for myself. Cheesy pasta wasn't exactly going to meet my nutritional requirements.

I had cooked chicken in the fridge, but I'm having one of those I'm so over chicken days today. So I resorted to one of my old favourites - an egg white omelette. 4 whites, one whole egg and as many veggies as I can cram into it, plus a sprinkling of parmesan cheese. Yum. Dinner, done.

Then I sat down at the computer and logged my food in Calorie King....and discovered that I still had over 300 Calories left for the day. Including 50g or so of carbs. Uh...

I HAVE TO EAT MORE FOOD. Gee, what a shame.

I'm loving this maintenance caper.

Yes, competition prep is about to begin, which means I will be cutting calories down some, but that's OK - it's temporary and it's a whole new adventure. I can't wait!
